An "oddball fairy tale" (The New York Times)--shortlisted for one of France's highest literary prizes--a dark, funny, and wholly charming novel about a young boy and his eccentric family, who grapple with the realities of mental illness in unique and whimsical ways.

A young boy lives with his madcap parents, Louise and George, and an exotic bird in a Parisian apartment, where the unopened mail rises in a tower by the door and his parents dance each night to Nina Simone's mellifluous classic "Mister Bojangles." As his mother, mesmerizing and unpredictable, descends deeper into her own mind, it is up to the boy and his father to keep her safe--and, when that fails, happy. Fleeing Paris for a country home in Spain, they come to understand that some of the most radiant people bear the heaviest burdens.

Told from the perspective of a young boy who idolizes his parents--and from George's journals, detailing his epic love story with his wife--Waiting for Bojangles is a "lighthearted and yet sorrowful tale" (San Francisco Chronicle) that will stay with you long after the final page.

Bourdeaut, Olivier: - Olivier Bourdeaut is a writer living in France. Waiting for Bojangles is his first novel.
